5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT CHARACTERS IN A FASCINATING PLOT AND SETTING, 30 Jun 1999
By A Customer
By juxtaposing the glitz and glitter of a major Hollywood film shoot with the no-nonsense, working-class city of Cleveland, Les Roberts has managed to blend tension, action, and humor into a most enjoyable reading experience.

His Hollywood-type characters ring true, and he manages to make the spoiled young movie star, Darren Anderson, sympathetic and appealing all the while he is being a louse. And hulking, tattooed muscle-for-hire Albert Wysocki is one of those indelible bad guys you love to hate - - quirky and funny while being chillingly sinister.

It is Cleveland private op Milan Jacovich, in his ninth and best-yet outing, whose presence is the glue that holds it all together. His wry wit is in full throttle, and his often rigid principles cost him dearly here, as they usually do, and we find ourselves rooting for his budding relationship with a bright, funny woman who matches his strength and determination.

A fast-action and highly entertaining entry in a superior series.

5.0 out of 5 stars good book, 17 April 1999
By A Customer
This was a good mystery to read. It kept you guessing and it was also about Hollywood which I love so it was great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it!, 21 Nov 1998
By A Customer
I have devoured the Milan series by Les Roberts. This is the last in the series for now, and it was with regret that I read the last page. I highly recommend this entertaining PI novel, but I suggest you read them in order, if possible. Milan goes through some rough times and changes, but he keeps getting better. The one constant is the wonderful city of Cleveland in the backdrop. Great book and terrific series.

5.0 out of 5 stars one of roberts' best
A more mature Jacovich, still interesting, humorous. My interest was maintained from the first page to the last. One of his better novels,though I have enjoyed them all.
